You have to look for ASIN B08ZHVJR61 which is the DEN0738 set of strings. There are two sellers there. I am currently out of these. As to WHY anything is not where you would think on Amazon, THAT is an entirely different question. The ENTIRE Amazon catalog is a mess with listings that are wrong, details that are wrong, images that are wrong, hijacked listings where the brands and the manufacturers have been taken over by rogue sellers -- mainly "offshore" in the "Far East" and Amazon basically does NOTHING to fix the issue or prevent it from happening. **Q: is it pure nickel wound or nickel-plated?** A: Nickel wound ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent strings ! *by S***E on April 24, 2026* Excellent guitar strings ! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impressive Strings *by S***N on August 2, 2025* I got these on a super sale to the point I couldn't pass up on practically free strings.
